I think the best compliment I can pay, Claudio, is that I had to stop what I was doing and jam on that tune for at least an hour! It was great to hear live, and to hear more of what you were doing on the night :-) Bravissimo!

[@Doctormix]

Ohhh wow! Thank you so much 🙏❤️ It means so much to me 🙌. I really look up to you and I’m vastly influenced by your body of work 🤯 I really look up to you and your words made my xmas come early this year 🙌❤️

[@EphemeralProductions]

Hello Mike. Are Level 42 still together and playing together? Have you guys done any shows as of late?

[@rossmeistergeneral9614]

Hello Mike, I saw you and the rest of Level 42 perform together in Blackpool last November, it was a great experience and I wish I could've met you and Mark King in person.🙌 Most of my music playlist consists of Level 42. PS - Doctor Mix's positive energy and his love for synths and vocoders was on full display at that gig, even though I wasn't there to see it. ❤🐧

[@MarcoPolux]

it is a very pleasant beat, those metals are G´Reat.... To make it a worldwide classic, I would add two female singers.

[@ritaduffy8622]

Very, very good I like it a lot I hope I can hear more of your playing

[@stevepinnell453]

Jazz is the teacher, funk is the preacher! Beautiful performance...

[@musicalsam1]

Love that

[@oholm09]

Facts 100%

[@OsLuSeMa]

Herbie Hancock approves it!!!!😄😄

[@djembeia]

You Leggend. So great to see you out front with a kick ass band laing it down in the funkiest of Herbie ways. Awsome 🤩

[@DojoOfCool]

Real horns make everything sound so much better!

[@hellen70666666]

....Kickin' it...!!!....Nice....!!!!.....2024'.....:)....🤩

[@Slayd5000]

Sounds amazing!!

[@DawlessHouseMusic]

Greetings, Slayd5000, been grooving to your posts for years. Learned so much about the music from your channel. Thanks a bunch. Truly.

[@lolilollolilol7773]

Yeah the mixing and mastering are super tight and punchy. Amazing display of the prowess of the DrMix recording studio.

[@Pauluz_The_Web_Gnome]

Never seen such a calm, concentrated/focused, Claudio! 😂🤣😂

[@Sumbibebe]

This is the Most AWESOME LIVE GIG!! Claudio, you are THE BOMB!! It’s an honor to show you off to my friends!! “See that guy on the vocoder/keyboards… he is my Mixing Producer/Producer and I know him!” The whole band is jamming like the top notch Pros!! And hats off to the sound, video, and lights team. They made this a Dream Gig!! Congratulations on pulling this off is 2022!!

[@kristopherdetar4346]

Beautiful, just beautiful to see live musicians at it again !!

[@donaldpriola1807]

I've always respected the hell out of your chops. Nice to see you in action with a band.

[@annother3350]

Very nice rendition - full horn section!

[@mikytube69]

Very very identical to Herbie and this song have 5/4... BRAVO!

[@user-JM1967]

Wow! So he sings!

[@Richard-tg5ln]

Claudio, this is amazing. There three superb covers of this on the internet, and this is on par with both. A true homage to Herbie Hancock and " Sunlight". I'd say this version is the most accurate rendition of the original.

[@samuel96100]

Excellent cover 👏

[@luizcarlosmarottajunior]

Herbie Hancock é gênio

[@neli5p]

Looking forward to the summer gig! Get planning 😀😀😀😀

[@ldifalco2010]

Excellent comme d'habitude. Bravo Claudio.

[@peterream9437]

Nice Claudio take on a classic, fabulous. Love this one...I played it as an opener at a regular local Sunday evening disco, that I used to help out with. Went down a treat. Love the bands enthusiasm ,you guys have a bond, you can hear it your playing...Magnifico

[@latlanticcityphil]

Instantly became one of my fav Herbie songs the first time I heard it. So cool, and unsurprised to hear you cover it. Such a lush jam.

[@jykds]

Fantastic, nice to see you enjoying yourself again.

[@althejazzman]

For a live recording, the detail and separation here is incredible. I almost forgot it was live.

[@LeafmusicOFC]

[@defrigge]

Wonderful...

[@driggerfireon5760]

Boat load of hard work and preparation. As good as it gets. You got soul

[@Tikitanedad]

That was OUTSTANDING! The line between synth and reality was totally blurred into an amazing jam of a song. Super talented group of musicians. Thank you Claudio for doing what you do. I was a band nerd in high school in the brass section. Lost music in my life after that. Stumbled across one of your videos a while ago and it inspired me to bring the music back. Playing with synths is making me happy on a daily basis. Seriously, thank you for the inspiration.

[@1969mre]

A tight 12piece grooving along!! Hat‘s off! You all are the masters of rehearsal

[@mistersparrow]

This is so TIGHT.

[@MrMoogman1]

Sheer Class!

[@65Antonis]

Great! I wish I could be there!

[@dougoverly]

I'm a long time lover of your channel. This song made me Herbie Convert in 10th grade(1998). I bought my first stage 73 to try and play it in my band. I added a Clav C3 and thought I was the white Herbie... I sucked!! You play this with grace! thanks for keeping this era of music alive for younger people to experience.

[@rodgerbulloch9219]

Just Superb

[@guiom77]

Winton Marsalis once said, 'we don't need more composers, we need more players.' well, this is old meets new, with a resurrection of Herbie in Claudio's image. Bravo!
